This is one thriller that really thrills. Tim, a specialist in crisis management, is swept up in a fast-paced, international plot to sell nuclear weapons to desert nomads that takes him on a mad dash from New York to Moscow to Timbuktu. But the more he learns, the more twisted the plot becomes as he discovers that the real fight is over a set of priceless ancient artifacts, purportedly subject to an ancient curse, discovered in the Sahara by his corrupt brother and his billionaire partner. Along the way, Tim falls in love with the billionaire’s beautiful daughter and is stalked across continents by a rogue’s gallery of colorful characters intent on backstabbing and revenge. The author, Eli Dahle, an international lawyer who has lived most of his adult life abroad, brings the exotic locales in this novel, all of which he has lived in or visited, to vivid, fascinating life.
